Amount Bolts incorrect while connecting compensator with two flanges

Good day,
When I connect flanges to compensator I only get the bolts on one side and not on both sides.

@fahmi_audishNMWLM ,

 

which Endcode did you use for your expansion joints? WF or FL
WF = intermediate flanged and has through bolts to both flanges
FL = end flange each flange connection gets a bolt set

Because the compensator has already gasket I made a new end type (CWOG = connection without gasket) and I put it in the project setup.

Please show me once about "PLANTENDCODES" and Modify... your "CWOG" settings

e.g.

I do not use Wafer connection,I use only WN flange and LAP-joint flange.

Here is my Endcode CWOG.

@fahmi_audishNMWLM ,

 

your Endcode CWOG is set to "Wafer like" so there is only one bolt set.
This setting makes little sense for compensators as the bolt set restricts the freedom of movement.
I would also go for "Flange like" so that you get a bolt set at each end of your compensator.
